Short Definition of "Lukewarm"

Think of this: If you ever had occasion to drink a lukewarm soft drink, you know the feeling. This is an illustration of a lukewarm drink to describe the distaste that makes God spit out the church at Laodicea. He doesn't want to have anything to do with it. The lukewarm ones are professing Christians who play games, but are not really His. They have been touched by the gospel in some way. They nauseate God because they know the truth but they have pride.
